Bendy

Bendy the Demon is a cartoon character created by Henry Stein as Joey Drew Studios' mascot in the very late 1920s. He acts as the titular main character of the Bendy franchise (both in-universe and real-world), being its namesake, as well as the first character created by the studio. Bendy starred in a series of cartoons and comic strips, often alongside the studio's other characters such as Boris the Wolf and Alice Angel. Bendy was also hired by Briar Label as a spokestoon for their Bacon Soup.

Bendy is a Fleischer-inspired cartoon imp with a body entirely colored in black apart from his face, which is white and bears a large toothy grin, along with large, black, pie cut eyes. He wears shiny black shoes, a white bowtie, and a pair of large white gloves, each with two black dots. Bendy's head is shaped like an oval, with the top of it being curved inwards to create the appearance of horns, which are always present in his silhouette regardless of which direction he is looking. Bendy lacks a neck, meaning that he is usually depicted with a floating head. However, this detail is inconsistent, and his head will occasionally be attached to his body.

Bendy is the shortest of the three main characters of the Bendy Cartoons, being only about half the height of Boris and Alice.

Bendy is a mischievous troublemaker, as one would expect from a little devil. Bendy can be greedy at times, often being seen attempting to steal. While this is mainly depicted in the comics, it can also be seen in the cartoons. In "Tasty Trio Troubles", Bendy outright refuses to pay for the burger he orders from Charley. Bendy also didn't pay Gaskette for his ride according to Gaskette's bio image. Despite this, according to Joey Drew Studios Employee Handbook, while Bendy can be playful, he is not evil. His jokes are never mean-spirited, and he shows care for his friends.

Despite his troublemaking, Bendy does have a good heart. When he receives a magical trident in the comics, his first order of business is granting Boris and Alice their respective wishes. Bendy is also shown to be working as a firefighter in Hellfire Fighter, showing that he has a desire to help others. Bendy is also shown to have an adventurous side, which often gets him and his friends into trouble.
